concert

Every so often, Chad VanGaalen emerges from his bunker in Calgary with batch of songs, giving us a window into the the private world of this reclusive and enigmatic songwriter. With Diaper Island –out May 17th on Flemish Eye in Canada– VanGaalen distills his approach; here he produces his most sonically cohesive album to date, and the closest thing he has done to a rock album.

Hot on the heels of buzz-worthy main stage performances at Winnipeg Folk Festival, Vancouver 125 in Stanley Park, Home Country Festival and more, Dan will be taking the stage at Hillside and Regina Folk Festivals among others before heading back across the Atlantic for the duration of the summer. Come October however, one of music’s most promising storyteller’s will be hitting the Canadian road to support his first album since the Polaris Music Prize shortlisted and multi-award winning album Nice, Nice, Very Nice.

Tegan and Sara will be returning to their home town of Calgary for two unique shows this summer: July 8th and 9th at Theatre Junction Grand.

Performing with a new ensemble, these shows will be intimate concerts, featuring an audience Q&A component. Every ticket purchased also includes a limited edition silk screened poster, designed by EE Storey, the band's long time art director.
